Movie	Cat's Meow
Nutshell	Peter Bogdanovich's film of Steven Peros' play and screenplay that depicts a fictionalized version of what happened when 1924 Hollywood luminaries including Charlie Chaplin, Thomas Ince, Marion Davies, Elinor Glyn and Louella Parsons set sail for Catalina and Ince wound up dead a few days later.
Good Things	Eddie Izzard, Kirsten Dunst, Edward Herrmann, Joanna Lumley, simply the most insane art direction, costumes and hair
Bad Things	Oh please -- my ASS that's San Pedro Harbor, plus contains possibly too much Charleston
Features	Cary Elwes playing American again, Jennifer Tilly playing annoying again, Claudia Harrison, Claudie Blakley, Chiara Schoras, pot smoking (in a Bogdanovich movie? you are kidding right?!), Yuki Iwamoto, Cannonball catcher guy, surveillance equipment, funny hats
Uncomfortable Moments	Annoying good time girls and some slower-than-molasses sequences. ("Is this scene still going on? Oh sweet Jesus, this scene is still going on!")
Notable	Kirsten Dunst is such a treasure here as Marion Davies.
Best Part	Eddie as Charlie. He really is fantastic.
Best Line	"Keep me happy, Pops!"
Crowns	4 out of 5
